I have provided psychotherapy and counseling services for over 25 years. By employing a wide variety of techniques and approaches, I have come to realize that the body is a vital and intricate partner in therapy. Somatic Experiencing is a body based approach to healing and the cornerstone of all my sessions, assisting you in soothing, settling, quieting, and balancing your nervous system. This approach reconnects to your inner wisdom and utilizes the body’s innate capacity to heal to help you live more fully and harmoniously.

Life is full of many unexpected changes and challenges. I believe that when someone is experiencing a difficult life event, there is the opportunity for growth. But all too often, this event can consume and control us.

I offer an empathic, supportive and non-judgemental approach to therapy with the goal of helping you, the individual, feel both secure and confident to make the changes that you desire.

Many of us are navigating change beyond what we prepared for. When our relationships become a source of stress, rather than the calming connection we seek out, our nervous systems protest, using coping styles designed for combat, not for love. We can push our partner away at the very same moment we need them the most. Are you worn from repeating negative patterns, longing for a clearer map to communicating needs? Marriages are healthiest when couples become shelter for each other, removing blocks to a satisfying bond. Using 30 years experience, I provide couples with personalized tools for more effective, satisfyiing relationships.
